A blast from the past
"From out of the clear blue of the Western sky . . .comes Sky King!"
Here are links to every episode of the "Sky King" TV show. I wonder if any pilots on this ng were inspired as kids by this how? Enjoy! Thanks for the links! We've got several of these episodes on DVD, and showed them on "Movie Night at the Inn" as part of a double feature. OMG -- I had forgotten how *sappy* a lot of those old shows really were! Situations that seemed so cool as a young lad now seemed absurd, and Penny -- once the girl of my dreams -- was like finger nails on a black board! Everyone enjoyed watching the episodes, but only for the nostalgia. Wouldn't it be great if they could make something like that show again today, only with more realistic situations and acting? -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination"

In later years, [Kirby] Grant considered bringing back the series and even a "Sky King" theme park, but nothing ever happened on either of these projects. At least one writer has boilerplated a "Sky King" film, but none has been produced." Drat!

What if a talented screen writer composed a serialized TV series around a flying family in the aviation-themed hotel business? It could include the childrens' development and how aviation influences their reality. There could be scenes of camaraderie of the aviation community, and a little life-and-death drama of search-and-rescue, the beauty of the skies and ever-changing landscape vistas, technical issues associated with maintaining a personal aircraft, airport political action, and all seasoned with a pinch of family-values schmaltz ala The Waltons. Line up a screen writer, videographer, and some hands, and "film" a pilot episode, and submit it in a grant proposal to the Wolf Aviation Fund*. I don't see why it wouldn't have a high probability of success. * http://www.wolf-aviation.org/grants.htm

Using IE7 on my WinXP system, I find a file named skyking-1.wmv#0;1.000;0;0;1:2;3:2 in the 'C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files' system folder with a size of 65,020kb. Doubtless this is the video file, but I'm not familiar with its format. Someone in the message thread he http://forum.videohelp.com/topic303277.html says that this program works: http://www.wmrecorder.com/demo.php Download and install WM Recorder 12 now, and start recording your favorite streaming audio and video clips. This is supposed to work too: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/CamStudio CamStudio records all screen activity into the standard AVI (Audio Video Interleave) format which can be played back with Windows Media Player. Finally, this looks promising: http://www.pcworld.com/downloads/fil...scription.html WM Downloader is a Windows Media and MP3 Stream Ripper/Grabber (not direct sound recording program), which makes it easy to download Windows Video, Windows Audio, SHOUTcast and Icecast streams. Hey. It's a start. Perhaps someone can take it from here....
